Wed 15 Jun – Portishead, Thought Forms
Thought Forms was the opening band. I had never heard them before and they blew me away. The sound was just perfect and they played around with it with both the essence of magical muses flowing through the performers bodies and of professional musicians who knew perfectly what they were doing. It was not what I was expecting to hear, but it was a perfect beginning. My sound buds had not indulged in such type of musical pleasures since the times with Marcos hearing My Bloody Valentine vinyls over and over again at his Rio Piedras apartment. When they guy sitting next to me asked me "Do you know who they are?", I answer "no" and promptly head after they finish to buy a beer and get their name at the merchandise desk.
And then it was time for Portishead. There was no way this concert could have been a disappointment at this point... How the experience began I cannot remember. …
